The schedule grows small. I have stopped writing new Elisp and will learn CL in order to adopt Lem. A few years back, this schedule included smart voices attempting to exercise some cultural leadership. It was bright, well-meaning, and la

If the binder that gives you something printable at low temperature doesn't integrate into the final result through chemical reaction, you are almost assuredly going to get a high porosity mess where the binder had to vaporize out. If

Fundamentally, if the nozzle temperatures can't possibly withstand what they are extruding without eroding, we can either: - balance an exothermic reaction (self-propagating high-temperature synthesis) to occur just after leaving the n

Yep. Even just sharing code with any license is valuable. Much I have learned from reading an implementation of code I have never run even once. Solutions to tough problems are an under-recognized form of generosity. This is a point wher

Your 10y estimate must be wrong since my nanorc only acquired these things after the nano maintainer was bullied out.

Emacs took a wrong fork in its own metaphor. At length, being able to take code and libraries between production and the editor would be a game changer. While Elisp has design features that make sense, in the tradeoffs, I think it lost to

Unrelated to the article, a lot of my millennials could see web and then mobile coming, focused on web & mobile, and as a result just weren't really participating in C and C++ development. We used terminal applications leftover fr

Agree, looks like an engine disruption. The rotation already exacerbates the flow into that engine. Change in flow geometry gets more smoke in its way when it's already eating turbulent air. We don't know if it just had a disrupt

For skin, a few seconds might be significant. For the spars, not nearly enough time to matter. It's also not at cruise speed slamming into a downdraft or anything. This is about a 1G loading. Negligible for a while. While the fire

No reading is not quite the same as "hot", but I'm sure it did contribute to discerning simple compressor stall to whatever this was.

This puts an impractical amount of faith in the sensor wiring when the whole pylon and cowling are shredded.

There is a dead zone between rejection and successful take-off speeds. We see it hit too often. I think pilot training is playing a factor. A normal rotation kills too much energy. One engine can climb when you have some airspeed and get

Right after the nano maintainer got bullied out by the FSF, I noticed two bindings got their defaults changed. They never change. I almost feel like it was graffiti, a flex against the old maintainer, a retribution for not doing whatever

The vast majority won't switch until there's a 10x use case. We know they are coming. Why bother hopping?

Makes me want to unplug and go back to offline social media. That's a joke. The dominant effect was networked applications getting developed, enabling community, not a shift back to client terminals.

90% search is not 90% ad revenue. If you want to compete with Google, it's easier to make a different kind of popular platform and then sell ads than to compete head-to-head for traffic on search only to... sell ads.

Unless they have managed to hide a lot of leverage and debt (not investment), that's a problem for their shareholders if they have priced in future growth. To avoid looping this conversation for the next 2-3 years, we need to get to hi

The problem is not demand going away. No margin in a late stage company goes unassailed for long. Intel has nothing to lose. AMD has everything to gain. Untold other players are finding oxygen in various places. Nvidia is smart to use

This is still so oversimplified. There's always bellwether products customers buy a lot and get used to. They use those to decide if you are cheap or expensive. Costco hotdogs are about satisfaction. If I can get one good deal or e

While Nvidia's strategic foresight explains why Nvidia is ahead, it doesn't quite capture why the challenge is not something that only AMD can or should tackle alone. The 7,484+ companies who stand to benefit do not have a good wa

WSL2. While it's a fair criticism, the underlying issue here is that there aren't enough Windows users who program and upstream things for individual users to get support. Lean on the Linux ecosystem and things are fine. The rea
